After some reading on these sites:
http://www.copyright.gov/fls/fl108.html
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trademark
we came to the conclusion that we'll use "Numberplace" internally to be "on the safe side". If the user string contains "Sudoku" or not is up to the countries and their translators then.
Please test if it is stable enough for the upcoming 0.2.0.5!
(I'll update the PM3 skin for localization later)

I think if you guys have gone through the effort to learn that Sudoku is a registered mark (or can be thought as being such in other countries) then - yes it needs to be changed.
Okay, I've removed it.
What do you think about a timer showing you how long you're already trying to solve the current game?
This could be extended to a highscore list of course
IMOON - how would you judge the difficulty for "solve" displaying solved fields in another colour instead of blackening everything?

rtv - If you are asking me about a timer. I think it is a great idea. My wie complained about a free version of majong I found for her - only one complaint - it didn't keep track of the score!
BTW - If you PM me your email and I'll send you a psd (and png) of the logo (about the same size and about the same density as before for the text "numberplace" if you want to use it.

hi rtv
your idea about the timer is not bad, would be good to become better and better
I noticed the following things:

I noticed the following things:
- After starting the Plugin the focus is on the grid,
View attachment 282
it should be on "new game".
View attachment 283
Probably the grid could be disabled until first game is created. - If focus is on "new game"
View attachment 283 - you pressed UP to go on topbar
View attachment 284 - and pressed DOWN again, focus is on solve
View attachment 285 - should be on "new game" again
- If focus is on "new game"
- The clear-button is not working like it should i think or like it is working now it is useless.
- If you tried to solve a game on your own
View attachment 286 - the clear button, blanks all fields completly.
View attachment 288 - I think it should only clear your edited fields. The button could also be renamed to "try again" or something else.
View attachment 287
- If you tried to solve a game on your own

Thanks for your input again!
With current svn "initial focus" is on new game now.
The 2nd item being selected from topbar ondown is not plugin specific but everywhere in MP..
I'll look at the clear button soon - as I've asked myself about the usefullness of it ;-) Please keep in mind that I'm quite busy testing for 0.2.0.5 patch at the moment. Just ask again if I forget that after release.
Or maybe IMOON can help?

Hi chefkoch,
I think it must be a new button with the name "try again" or reset. But the "Clear" Button works how it should. Because the programm can also solve sudokus from a newspaper for you.
rtv
The timer is a good idea I will see what I can do.
I have an idea for the solve button problem you described and it's not so difficult. But how can I upload fixes?

Hi again
No problem rtv, i know you are working hard on 0.2.0.5 which has much higher priority, because the users wait for the now-playing stuff.
I think it would be better if you keep the things on your private todo-list, because i don't want to ask again to early which could sound negative
IMOON
I didn't know that the plugin can solve my own sudokus, mhh nice feature, have to try it.
About the new button, "reset" would be much better.
For uploading fixes you can use sourceforge's patch queue, i think the team is using this to get code from users, right? You have to register on sourceforge and can upload fixes, would be good to make a post, describe and link to your patch, i think.
